If the statesman is bound to be, in the practical discharge of his duties, a conscientious jurist, the jurist must, in his work of examination and testing, keep always in mind the point of view of the statesman. THE LAW AND THE FACTS 97 Perhaps it has been a lifetime fondness for the physical sciences in hours of relaxation, perhaps a natural bent of mind or the hard les son of experience at the Bar and in great legis lative inquiries, that has given to Mr. Hughes this quiet, unpretentious, tho...rough-going fond ness for a fact and aversion to merely academic theorising and preconception; but his pragma tism of outlook is of the grass roots of progres sive and constructive statesmanship, in judicial as well as administrative position. As Profes sor Roscoe Pound, perhaps the most clear sighted of all American students of modern pub lic law, said, in 1909 : Jurisprudence is the last in the march of the sciences away from the method of deduction, from predetermined conceptions. The socio logical movement in jurisprudence, the move ment for pragmatism as 'a philosophy of law, the movement for the adjustment of principles and doctrines to the human conditions they are to govern rather than assumed first principles, the movement for putting the human factor in the central place and relegating logic to its true position as an instrument, has scarcely shown itself as yet in America.
